Trumpet Lesson #1 - Air and Embouchure

Dios te bendiga carnal esto sera de mucha ayuda para mi ya haci falta algo enserio en youtube no puras tonterias jajaja gracias
God bless you men this will be very useful for me and to lack something like this in youtube, not only stupid thinks thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

try just blowing air through the trumpet first, then play. something that has helped me get better at the trumpet is listening to professional trumpet players and trying to copy thier sound.

I having issues with the breathing. I always hold my breath when I play and it's really difficult to stop. Can somebody give me some more tips. It's really fusturating!!!

try playing a piece you play in band or wherever you play and when theirs a rest try breathing very close to the next note... give yourself enough time to get a full breath but just little enough so you dont have a chance to hold it. you could also try just breathing in then lightly breathing out before you start playing to keep you from holding your breath and keep some air moving ... just a few thoughts

i play both :)

i luv the trumpet this is my 2nd year and i have all region try outs this year!!!!!! =S wish me luck my music is pretty hard im still working on getting that G above the staff a and Bb

Wat? o_o.. I've been going at the trumpet for 3 months and I can hit the F below that G. Have you made sure to do several lip slur exercise and lots of practice? (And when I say F I mean with good sound, I can hit the G but it's really pinched.)

no worries dood, i've been playing for about 14 years, and i started playing above the staff at about year 2 and a half. You'll be hitting that C before you know it.

i love the trumpet.

I really appreciate the 215th army band for posting this clip. This is very good material for someone just starting out. Thank you very much.
